Howdy Mark,

I stand corrected - I shall forward to the appropriate list then.

Cheers,
Umar.

IIRC, we've only had one agency posting on the list.  That was from a guy
who I knew and who was recruiting for a FOSS related position within a
company who was known to be linux friendly.
All of the other agency posts we had (when I was running the list) were
turned down.  I can't speak for the current admins.

I mostly do the moderation for jobs@ (Pete also does some?).

If anything looks like something of interest, I generally
let it through. :-)

I'm not sure who is filtering posts to that list... it was Tony Green
for a while, maybe it still is. In practice, about 50% of the posts are
people asking for work, the rest non-agency. But I don't know whether
that's because agency stuff is filtered out :)

Does that list still take spam from agencies?

Hi Umar,

We discourage people from sending job ads to the slug list -- you might
want to send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead.

Java Coder Wanted:

Can you code beautiful Java? Are you self-motivated and don't need direct
supervision? Don't want to go to the office every day? 

We are looking for a Java coder to join a small and specialized team
working on Security and Defence related projects. The company is a startup
with extremely good opportunities and contacts and has just signed a deal
across the Asia Pacific region with a leading multinational
hardware/software vendor for co-marketing opportunities and distribution.

All coding will be done from home, and checked in via VPN. With
face-to-face meetings as-required.

Needless to say - there will be times when other skills will be required -
support, sysadmin, consulting, all-round IT skills - but this is almost
entirely a coding position.

The candidate MUST be self-motivated, reliable and organized. Direct 
supervision will be minimal.

Technical skills required:

* Java, J2EE, EJB

* Swing/GUI Java work

* XML

* Solaris/*nix

* Networking skills/understanding of IP and associated protocols

* Security and encryption general concepts

* Understanding of carrier/ISP environments


Personal skills/attributes:

* Good communicator

* Team player

* Reliable

* Committed

* Motivated


Provided that you have excellent Java skills, are a fast learner,
willing/able/keen to learn new concepts/technologies and are willing to
RTFM - the rest can be picked up along the way.

The idea is that the successful candidate will become an integral part of
the team and critical to the success of the project. You will be exposed
to various interesting methods, technologies and legal frameworks of
various countries - so this will certainly be rewarding and interesting.  
This is a challenging position - commitment and hard work is critical to
success.

Candidate must be able to keep to deadlines and must be extremely
reliable. If you are used to always submitting deliverables slightly late
- do not apply.

The successful candidate may also be required to undergo a Security 
Clearance - please bear this in mind.

Various benefits and bonus schemes are available.

Sydney-based applicants eligible to work in Australia only at this stage
please.

Please send your cover letter, resume, date of availability and expected
level of remuneration to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
